Software Release - fwknop-0.9.9

15 October, 2006

The 0.9.9 release of fwknop is ready for
download. This is a minor
bugfix release, but there one important feature release - the (configurable)
ability to force fwknop clients to either resolve or know their externally routable
IP address. Here is the
ChangeLog:

Added REQUIRE_SOURCE_ADDRESS (disabled by default) to force fwknop
clients to know their source IP address (i.e. -s cannot be used). So,
either fwknop clients have to use -R to resolve their externally
routable address, or they must just know what it is.

Updated to Net-RawIP-0.21_03 for compatibility with gcc-4.x compilers.

Added List-MoreUtils-0.22 which is a dependency of the new Net::RawIP
module.

Bugfix to restore "start" functionality in Gentoo init script.

Bugfix to use the IPT_OUTPUT_FILE and IPT_ERROR_FILE configuration
variables in fwknopd.

Added KNOPTM_IPT_OUTPUT_FILE and KNOPTM_IPT_ERROR_FILE variables
specifically for the knoptm daemon so that it can use IPTables::ChainMgr
completely independently of fwknopd (this removes a potential race
condition between fwknopd and knoptm).
